Perspectives For 2013
Posted on December 31, 2012 by tedjhanson
Greetings;

I pray blessings for you all on this last day of December in the year of 2012. I am in Salem, Oregon with some great people. I have been participating in a conference of Marshallese congregations. These are really fun folks. I speak many blessings to my new hungry Marshallese friends. God is going to do great things for you in the new year!

As we close this year of 2012 and enter the year of 2013, I want to write concerning what I believe to be prophetic keys to what God is doing in the earth. Just in case you didn’t get the spiritual memo of 2011, you will need to know three things from that season that are essential to understanding the season that is at hand.

The first of those three is that God is good and He loves people. You cannot view the world as bad and it needs a savior and believe that this is a statement of truth to build upon. If you do, the center of your world is bad people. This becomes the center of your focus. You must see that God is good and He loves people. He is able to love in all situations to work things out for good. He loves good people and He loves bad people, but He is the center of every world. The fact that God is good makes it possible for everything to work out for good.

The second thing you must grab hold of is that love is a revelation and not a command. The Law and the Prophets were based upon two commands, but Grace and truth is based upon a revelation of love. We love God and others “even as He loves us”. The empowerment to love is based upon a revelation of His love.

The third thing you must lay hold of is that you are not wrestling with yourself, others, your circumstances, or even God. God is actually wrestling with you, because He knows who you are and He wants you to manifest as a son or daughter of your Heavenly Father. God knows that you are a prince or a princess and the world is in need of you. I wrote in regard to this in my blogs of July 2011. You will need these three things in your weapons arsenal for the year of 2013:

God is good and He loves people
Love is a revelation
God is wrestling with you so you will manifest as an inheritor of God – a prince or a princess of life
As we enter into the year of 2013 you will also need three things given in 2012. If you didn’t get the Sprit memo, here they are. The first is that God wants us to be an accepting people. He accepts all people exactly as they are, but then He transforms us all into the likeness and image of our heavenly Father. His kingdom is a come as you are culture, but not a stay as you are one.

The second thing is that we are a people of empowerment. Life isn’t fair, so we cannot be people of entitlement. Life isn’t supposed to be fair, but God’s grace at work in anyone’s world will transform anyone’s world to a bit of heaven on earth.

The third thing is to be a people who are dependant upon God in all things. God dependence is the testimony of true righteousness. Self-righteousness, self-sufficiency, and self-dependency are the opposite of true righteousness. Our righteousness is in Christ, so we will need to be God-dependant in all things to see His glory revealed in and through our lives. You will also need these three things in your weapons arsenal for the year of 2013:

We must embrace a kingdom culture of acceptance
We must be a people who embrace and reveal the empowering grace of God
We must be a God-dependant people in all things.
Now this brings me to the challenge of 2013. Here are seven synonymous names that I believe describe the testimony of God’s people emerging in the light of 2013.

An Apostolic People
People Who Are Sent
People of Purpose
An Empowering Generation
People of Inheritance
Grace Empowered People of Truth
The People of God
We cannot be the people of God without being the family of God. It is time for the true culture of Christ’s kingdom to emerge to another level in the earth. To become who we were meant to be we must continually receive mercy and find grace (Receive Mercy & Find Grace -Posted on June 18, 2012 by tedjhanson). Mercy will free us from being stuck in our past and grace will empower us to reign in this life in Christ.

The year of 2013 will not come without trials. There will be trials and a testing of our faith in this new year. What is the purpose of those trials?

1Peter 1:6-9 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls.

Trials only reveal the truth. Trials reveal the genuineness of our faith. Faith is a natural response to a supernatural relationship. Faith happens within us when we hear God in our hearts. Trials are not meant to take us out, but to manifest who we really are. Trials do not form us, but God in our midst forms us. God doesn’t want to deliver us from our trials. He wants to move into our neighborhood. He wants to move into our trials.

We have a genuineness of faith and that faith brings us to the place of seeing God in our lives. Faith comes by hearing, but it takes us to the place of seeing what we cannot see naturally. Faith leads us to a place of seeing Jesus. When we see Jesus we receive grace. That grace is the power of God at work in our lives. Grace comes to us at a revelation of Jesus Christ. The result is praise, honor, and glory to God. The end of our faith is the salvation of our souls.

The salvation of our souls is “His kingdom come, His will be done, on earth as it is in heaven”. His will is done by the power of His grace at work in our lives. Grace is the power that manifests His kingdom in our lives. Grace is the manifestation of Christ in our lives. This is the power of “becoming”, not merely doing.

1Peter 1:13-16 Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

When we receive a revelation of Jesus Christ in our lives we receive a manifestation of His grace. Grace doesn’t give us the instruction of doing holiness; it empowers us to be like Christ. It empowers us to “be holy”.

1Peter 1:17-21 And if you call on the Father, who without partiality judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your stay here in fear; knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

The Law could not redeem us. The religious traditions of men cannot change the substance of who we are. It cannot reveal the true substance that God intends for us to be. No law or religious ceremony can bring about true life in the earth. It was the sacrificial life of Christ that redeemed us. A human “being” redeemed us as human “beings”. Jesus made a way for us to become the people of God. Our faith and hope is in God, not freedom from trials. Let the culture of Christ’s kingdom prevail in 2013!

Blessings,

Ted J. Hanson

Happy Holidays

Hello
I just wanted to hope and release my faith for a wonderful time this holiday time and a 2013 that will exceed your wildest expectations. I pray Yahweh surprises you all with outrageous mercy and grace this time and next year. Pamela delivered some presents yesterday and one of our grandsons Andrew just went nuts over opening his Thomas train. His was so excited and grateful for the surprise of a his gift. Yahshua said we would be like children in our kingdom view. He would love to see us go nuts over His gift. Not acting nuts out of obligation but a genuine reaction to His surprise of mercy and grace. Prepare your hearts to receive the gift of Him.

Blessings
Richard

I am drawing the hungry heart, those that desire to see My Glory. It is My Joy to see My Glory revealed in My Sons and My Daughters. The world will see in Thee the Tree of Life in the midst of the Garden Christ in You the Hope of Glory .

Yahweh in Baja

On By Harvest of Faith ChurchIn church locator southaven msLeave a comment

heyBurd,

Today we had a big Bible Study, 12 kids upstairs . Frank taught in
Spanish ………Behold the nailed Hand behold Salvation. Children age
10 to 13 were making notes in the Bibles I keep for them here and
highlighting like crazy……………..(got a donation of 500 red
highlighter pens)…
Little Tweety Bird, even Flo and Aquilino were writing in the margins
and repeating until they knew by memoru what Yhwh means!

It was the most awesome powerful “study” I have ever been in. I mean,
come on………..how many kids of that age would even come straight
from school to study MORE?
With all of their homework from government school yet to do??

Sorry, but thinking of myself at that age and mentality, I cannot
think of even one solitary child .

They are apt to learn and so hungry and Frank wants me to thank YOU
for sending the message you preached, “A Son is Given” ,the “What’s
in a Name” article and the Saint Patrick’s prayer revised………he
is almost possessed with getting it translated to Spanish but well on
his way to being able to now EXPLAIN why we call the Father Yahweh.

Today, he had another dr appointment. On the way home I stopped for
groceries it was after dark about 6:30……………in the parking
lot I found him explaining to 3 parking attendants all very elsderly
men who work only for the tips they get loading your groceries or
helping you with their handy whistles to back out of a small parking
space in a huge EXCURSION. (seems like 10 feet longer than my ole
suburban)…………..and I must mention this was at WALMART, which
allows 75 year old men to work as parking attendants for meager
“tips” of maybe 40 pesos a day. Like 3 bucks from the PRIVILEDGE of
standing in Big Sam’s parking lot. God forgive that.
Anyway, yeah Frank was preaching out the window of the truck while
waiting for me, preaching avbout the Name of
God………………….our God. And this on a VERY important night,
the Day of the Virgen de Guadelupe, a huge day, sadly bigger than
Christmas here, that celebrates the 1st sighting by Juan Diego of the
Virgin Morena ( which mean the dark virgin or indigenous virgen, or
MEXICAN virgen) ……………….huge parades yesterday tonite and
ending tomorrow in her honor, while the Son of Yahweh, gets but one
night in His Honor, Noche Buena, the 24th which is the almost equilent
of the 25th for us Americans.
BUT, putting all of that different culture aside I have to thank
Yahweh and BEHOLD THE HAND BEHOLD . Salvation. Frank really got a lot
from the last things you have sent and soo have I. AND I can GUARANTEE
that NOONE in the 50 mile radius of Ensenada is teaching children what
is in our God Yahweh’s Name.
This was so awesome. Through his pain Frank can’t stop talking about
Yahweh. Seeing thos elderly men raptly attentive to what Frank was
saying in cold drizzly weather, took my breath away. I was hungry and
wanted to go home in the check out line but walking out and seeing
this scene, put the kibosh on my hunger.
One man was 78 and got stuck here from Nicaruaga, h is trying to get
money to get home. One was from Chile , same story, couldn’t cross the
Border wanting to be home. The last was 68 and crippled and from
Ensenada……………………we ended up taking them all for tacos,
the adobada ones ya’ll like, but right by the grocery. It was
obvious by the pungent body smell in the truck that the 3 were
sleeping in the same parking lot were they work, with no shower or
decent facilities. I imagined for a second being so elderly and so
ALONE. And couldn’t keep my focus on it it hurt so bad.
I dumped my purse of change and wescrounged the ashtray and soda
holder and blessed them as much as we could by faith and by the grace
of the Lord.
It was a great day. So many seeds Eternal ones were planted. Let us
pray some one will water and tend these Precious Seeds of the Word of
Life. Join us in praying that those 2 men can get home to their
families. In Yeshua’s Name,
Love and many thanks for continuing to give us this great gift of
wisdom and teaching. We love you,
Detra and Frank

Daily Prayer

The Breastplate of Righteousness

(from Saint Patrick’s Prayer)

I arise today through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Name of Yahweh, through belief in the Threeness, through confession of the Oneness of the Creator of creation.

I arise today through the strength of Yahshua with His Baptism,
through the strength of His Crucifixion with His Burial,
through the strength of His Resurrection with His Ascension,
through the strength of His descent for the Judgment of Doom.

I arise today through the strength of the love of Cherubim
in obedience of Angels, in the service of the Archangels,
in hope of resurrection.

in prayers of Patriarchs, in predictions of Prophets,
in preaching of Apostles, in faiths of Confessors,
in innocence of Holy Virgins, in deeds of righteous men.

I arise today, through the strength of Heaven:
light of Sun, brilliance of Moon, splendour of Fire,
speed of Lightning, swiftness of Wind, depth of Sea,
stability of Earth, firmness of Rock.

I arise today, through Yahweh’s strength to pilot me:
Yahweh ‘s might to uphold me, Yahweh ‘s wisdom to guide me,
Yahweh ‘s eye to look before me, Yahweh ‘s ear to hear me,
Yahweh ‘s word to speak for me, Yahweh ‘s hand to guard me,
Yahweh ‘s way to lie before me, God’s shield to protect me,
Yahweh ‘s host to secure me:
against snares of devils, against temptations of vices,
against inclinations of nature, against everyone who
shall wish me ill, afar and a near, alone and in a crowd.

I summon today all these powers between me (and these evils):
against every cruel and merciless power that may oppose my body and my soul, against incantations of false prophets,
against black laws of heathenry,
against false laws of heretics, against craft of idolatry,
against spells of witches and smiths and wizards,
against every knowledge that endangers man’s body and soul.
Spirit of Yahshua to protect me today
against poison, against burning,
against drowning, against wounding,
so that there may come abundance of reward.

Spirit of Yahshua with me, Spirit of Yahshua before me, Spirit of Yahshua  behind me, Spirit of Yahshua in me,
Spirit of Yahshua beneath me, Spirit of Yahshua above me,
Spirit of Yahshua on my right, Spirit of Yahshua on my left,
Spirit of Yahshua in breadth, Spirit of Yahshua in length, Spirit of Yahshua in height,
Spirit of Yahshua in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Spirit of Yahshua in the mouth of every man who speaks of me,
Spirit of Yahshua in every eye that sees me,
Spirit of Yahshua in every ear that hears me.

I arise today through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity, through belief in the Threeness, through confession of the Oneness of the Creator of creation.
Salvation is of Yahshua. Salvation is of the Yahweh. Salvation is of the Spirit ofYahshua. May Your Salvation, O Yahweh, be ever with us. Amen

A Wife

Proverbs 18:22 ¶ The man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the LORD. NLT
Today I am thankful for my Wife Pamela. Names reveal the nature of things . In the beginning things were named by Adam given their true names. Adam had the power or anointing before the fall to see the true nature of Yahweh’s creation. He could treasure it as the gift to him that it was. . today we have the Holy spirit in us to reveal the true name of things. he is sent to lead and to guide us into all truth. Here the Holy Spirit recorded word is a man who finds (matsa’to be encountered, be lighted upon, be discovered) a good thing (towb) good, pleasant, agreeable. The word is used twice indicating a treasure and he receives favor meaning here pleasure, delight, favor, goodwill, acceptance, goodwill. Yahweh’s will toward man is good acceptable and perfect. He reveals this in a wife.
Pamela’s name means full of Honey or all sweetness. I am thankful for my wife .Yahweh has revealed to me through her the true sweetness of life and His favor towards me. I pray today in thanksgiving that men everywhere will see with true eyes the treasure hidden in the earthly vessels of women and find treasure for themselves.

Ruach Hokadesh

John 16:13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.
I am thankful for the Holy Spirit Ruach Hokadesh in Hevrew Holy Breath . As the air around us enters our human bodies so the all present Spirit of Yahweh the Creator that surrounds us enters into our being causing life. As air contains the potential as the body contains potential only the meeting of the two the interaction causes life. So the Human spirit and the Holy spirit interact and cause release life ( Zoe) the God kind of life. He speaks to us Holy Spirit what He has heard the Father declare about us and shows us the future. Not what is set in stone , not fate but the potential, the plan the purpose God has in His Mind for our lives. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome. (AMP). The Holy spirit shows us our future in the Heart of the Father.
This morning I was setting and drinking my coffee I though about a certain child who is a friend of my grandchildren. I though how special he was, a gift from God. A few minutes later Pamela said the boys mother had called and ask if she could give him a ride to school with our grandchildren. How strange . Was the Holy spirit revealing the future even about this child . that god know him and has plans for his welfare and peace. You Holy spirit does not just show us big things ( to Us) like the end of the world but He shows us the seemingly small things that make up the joy of Life everyday. Thank You Ruach Hokadesh you are the Breathe of Life. 11.26.2012

Word for 2013

On By Harvest of Faith ChurchIn church locator southaven msLeave a comment

SUNDAY , NOVEMBER 18, 2012
WORD FOR 2013
There is a open door , we are going forward and there is going to be a change in 2013.
A light shall shine forth upon us and cause us to be changed and those around us to be changed and those around us to be changed. This is the way it shall start says the Lord-one here and one there, then everywhere. It will start among few and spread among many. This year you shall see a change among the people of this nation. You shall see a change in the church not just this local church, but you shall see a change in the body of Christ all over this nation. For they shall come together in one heart and in one voice to proclaim the reality of Jesus . They Shall come together in one heart and one voice to proclaim the reality of Jesus.
Even as the enemy shall seek to rush across this nation with a dark cloud and a dark storm and out of it a dark cloud of destruction. And there shall arise , there shall rise among these lights those who shall display the Glory . And the Glory cloud shall arise up in the midst of the darkness and the midst of the storm and the Glory cloud will rise up and the Light of God shall dispel the darkness and push it back-shall drive it back. All men will know this not by the hand of a man , this not by the hand of a woman. This is by the hand of Him that we cannot see, but we know now and we believe now that He exists and that He is the ruler of all mankind. He is the ruler of all that He created. He is the ruler of the earth and they will give their hearts to him this year. Many that do not know him will give their hearts to him this year. You say in your heart “I’m not ready Lord’ The Lord says “Get ready”, “Get ready, ” Get ready” you have been prepared for such a hour as this, for they shall come. They shall seek for they have a seeking heart, Give them the Light of life. Give them the Light of Life and fulfill your destiny here on the earth says the Lord.

Day 7 of Thanksgiving
Romans 12:5 so it is with Christ’s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other. NLT
Today I am thankful for all believers. I am thankful that they are not limited to my local church or tribe. Your grace and your being affects me and I affect you . We have influence upon each other’s lives. I am thankful that more of us are seeing we are not separated by doctrines , gender, race or location but we are linked in our hearts with one another. Ephesians 4:4 For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future. I have enjoyed sharing my life and thanksgiving with you all. I have been blessed by your comments and the privilege of touching your heart. Thanksgiving points us in the direction of the great riches Christ has bestowed on us in His people , His Body.
I truly give thanks for you. Have a great Thanksging day for you here in the U.S. and all over the planet Earth.

Day 6 of Thanksgiving

On By Harvest of Faith ChurchIn church locator southaven msLeave a comment

Exodus 18:24 Moses listened to his father-in-law’s advice and followed his suggestions.NLT
Day 6 of Thanksgiving
Today I am thankful for my in-laws. I was blessed with not only great in-laws but with a new set of parents who truly loved me. They were real believers. . Henry Pamela’s dad prayed for me and was significant in my coming to faith. After I did get saved he took a very scruffy hippy (me) into his home and loved and taught him the ways of God. He was a pastor as well as a father to me. Pamela’s mom Phyllis fed me and laughed at my jokes and gave my wife the gift of being a wonder wife and mother. Am I thankful the Lord was watching over me and loved me and put me into faithful hands. You out there who set under my ministry should also be thankful that Henry taught me never to preach over 45 minutes as he had to listen to me on several occasions.
